Administrator and Plan Participants of
Bunge Savings Plan
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Bunge Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits for the Plan as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Supplemental Information
The supplemental information contained in Schedule H, Line 4j – Schedule of Assets (held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2024 has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Bunge Savings Plan (the "Plan") was established on April 1, 1996. On January 1, 2004, the Plan was amended to transfer assets attributable to non-union participants in the Plan to the Bunge Retirement Savings Plan and transfer the assets of the Central Soya 401(k) Plan for Hourly Employees ("CSY Plan") to the Plan. The Plan was further amended to provide that Plan provisions applicable to participants in the CSY Plan are set forth in a separate subplan known as Supplement A to the Plan. Effective January 1, 2005, the assets attributable to Supplement A participants were transferred to the Bunge Savings Plan – Supplement A. Plan assets attributable to the subplan covering Supplement A participants may only be used to pay benefits for Supplement A participants, and trust assets attributable to the subplan covering the remaining participants may only be used to pay benefits for such participants.
On November 1, 2023, Bunge Global SA completed the change of jurisdiction of incorporation of its group holding company from Bermuda to Switzerland (the "Redomestication"). The Redomestication, as approved by Bunge shareholders, was effected pursuant to a scheme of arrangement under Bermuda law. Each common share of Bunge Limited, par value $0.01 per share, was cancelled in exchange for an equal number of registered shares of Bunge Global SA, par value $0.01 per share (the "registered shares"). The registered shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "BG" on November 1, 2023, which is the same symbol under which the Bunge Limited shares were previously traded. References in this Report on Form 11-K to "shares" refer to Bunge Limited common shares prior to the Redomestication and to Bunge Global SA registered shares after the Redomestication, unless otherwise specified. The Redomestication did not have an impact on the Plan or the accompanying financial statements of the Plan.
Significant accounting policies followed by the Plan are as follows.
Basis of Accounting — The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition — The Plan’s investment in the Bunge Defined Contribution Master Trust (the "Trust") is presented at fair value, which has been determined based on the fair value of the underlying investments of the Trust. The Trust’s investments include mutual funds, Bunge Global SA's shares, and self-directed brokerage accounts, whereby a participant may elect to invest the participant's transferable account balance in a variety of options including mutual funds, other common stock, and interest-bearing cash and cash equivalents that are stated at estimated fair value based on quoted market prices. Other investments are valued using pricing models maximizing the use of observable inputs for similar securities.
The collective trust funds consist of certain trust funds that are valued at the net asset value per share as determined by the issuer based on the underlying fair value of its net assets and of a stable value fund that is composed primarily of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts that are valued at the net asset value of units of the bank collective trust.
One of the investment options offered by the Plan, the MIP II Fund, is a collective trust that is fully invested in contracts deemed to be fully benefit-responsive. The Plan reports its investment in the MIP II Fund at fair value using the net asset value of the units held by the fund at year-end as a practical expedient. See Note 11 - Investments Measured Using The Net Asset Value Per Share Practical Expedient, for investments held by the Trust for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient.
Sales and purchases of investments are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Earnings on investments are allocated to
-4-

| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | ||
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 | ||
participants based on daily account balances. See Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements for discussion of fair value measurements.
Payment of Benefits — Benefit payments are recorded when paid.
Administrative Expenses — Administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the participants as provided in the Plan document. Certain expenses of maintaining the Plan are paid directly by Bunge North America, Inc. (the "Company") and are excluded from these financial statements.
Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Plan's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, accompanying notes of the Plan financial statements, and changes therein and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties — The Plan invests in the Trust, which holds various securities, including mutual funds, Bunge Global SA's shares, collective trust funds, other common stock, and interest-bearing cash and cash equivalents that are stated at estimated fair value based on quoted market prices. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities may occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
Voluntary Compliance Resolution — The Company had late participant contributions for the Plan year ended December 31, 2022. The Company utilized the Department of Labor Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program calculator to determine the lost earnings in the amount of $419 and corrected the delinquent contributions in 2023.
Subsequent Events — Effective January 1, 2025, the Plan was amended to allow for participant loans.
In April 2025, Bunge entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of its corn milling business in North America to Grain Craft, LLC. The transaction is expected to close in mid-2025. Following the sale, assets of affected participants will be fully vested.
The Plan has evaluated subsequent events through June 24, 2025, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
2. PLAN DESCRIPTION
The Plan is a defined contribution plan designed to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"). The Bunge U.S. Retirement Plans Committee is responsible for plan governance and administering the Plan in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act of 1974 and Plan documents. The Investment Committee is responsible for establishing the investment policy and monitoring Plan assets. The Company has appointed Fidelity Management Trust Company ("Fidelity") to serve as record keeper, administrator, and trustee of both the Plan and the Trust. The descriptions of Plan terms in the following notes to financial statements are provided for general information purposes only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Plan document. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the applicable provisions of the Plan. All regular hourly employees, except those regular hourly employees of Bunge North America (East), L.L.C. (collectively "Employer Group") whose terms and conditions of employment are subject to a collective bargaining agreement that bargained to participate in the Plan, are eligible Plan participants. Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan
-5-

| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | ||
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 | ||
participant. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA").
3. CONTRIBUTIONS AND WITHDRAWALS
Contributions
Contribution limits for participants are based on their respective collective bargaining agreements. As determined by the IRC’s qualified retirement plan limits, the total amount which a participant could elect to contribute to the Plan on a pre-tax or Roth after-tax basis could not exceed $23,000 in 2024 and $22,500 in 2023. However, if a participant reached age 50 by December 31, they are able to contribute an additional $7,500 in 2024 and 2023 in "catch up" contributions to the Plan on a pre-tax or Roth after-tax basis.
The contribution amounts and allocation between pre-tax and post-tax basis of participant accounts are subject to IRC discrimination tests and limitations.
The employer match and fixed contribution, if any, is subject to participant collective bargaining agreements.
Plan participants may select from a number of investment alternatives for their contributions. Investment choices include various mutual funds, self-directed brokerage accounts, and collective trust funds whereby a participant may elect to invest in a variety of investment options, and the Bunge Common Stock Fund (subject to certain limits) (the "Bunge Fund"). The Bunge Fund pools a participant’s money with that of other employees to buy registered shares of Bunge Global SA as well as short-term investments designed to allow participants to buy or sell without the usual trade settlement period for individual stock transactions. The value of the participant investment in the Bunge Fund will vary depending on the performance of Bunge Global SA, the overall stock market, and the performance and amount of short-term investments held by the Bunge Fund, less any expenses accrued against the Bunge Fund. All dividends and interest earned in the Bunge Fund are reinvested in the Bunge Fund. A participant’s ownership in the Bunge Fund is measured in units of the Bunge Fund instead of shares.
Employer Group matching contributions are allocated to participants based upon the current contribution allocation among investment alternatives elected by the individual participant. Thereafter, employee and employer contributions may be reallocated by the participant among all investment alternatives. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account.
The Plan allows participants the option of making qualified (as defined by the Plan document and the IRC) rollover contributions into the Plan.
Vesting
The participants’ contributions, plus any actual earnings thereon, vest immediately. Employer matching contributions are credited to individual participants’ accounts, and vest at a rate of 20% per year and all matching contributions become 100% vested following five years of continuous service. Participants will forfeit any non-vested portion of their account balance upon leaving the Company’s employment for any reason other than normal retirement.
Nonvested forfeited accounts can be used to reduce future employer contributions or pay plan expenses. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, employer contributions were reduced by $66,982 and
-6-
| BUNGE SAVINGS PLAN | ||
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | ||
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 | ||
$281,925, respectively, and nonvested forfeited accounts remaining in Net Assets Available for Benefits as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $122,100 and $65,839, respectively.
Withdrawals
Participants may not withdraw pre-tax contributions except as provided for hardship withdrawals or age 59½ withdrawals permitted by the Plan. Following normal retirement or termination of employment, participants may withdraw their entire account balances in a lump sum or any other form of payment allowed by the Plan prior to April 1 following the calendar year in which the participant attains age 73. Participants with account balances less than or equal to $7,000 upon retirement or termination must withdraw their entire account balances in a lump sum or any other form of payment allowed by the Plan on the date the participant terminates employment. Withdrawals by participants are recorded upon distribution. A participant may withdraw all or any portion of their rollover contribution account, including earnings, at any time.
4. NOTES RECEIVABLE FROM PARTICIPANTS
The Plan was amended effective December 31, 2019 to allow the transfer of outstanding loans from the Loders Croklaan Savings Plan in to the Plan. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account. Loan payments, including interest due, are paid ratably through payroll deductions. As of December 31, 2024, participant loans bear interest rates of 5.25% and mature through December 2029. No allowance for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2024 or 2023. Delinquent loans are recorded as distributions based on the terms of the Plan document. Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued, but unpaid interest. Fees related to the administration of notes receivable from participants are charged directly to the participant's account and are included in administrative expenses.
5. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions set forth in ERISA. In the event the Plan is terminated, participants will become 100% vested in their employer contributions.
6. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
The Plan obtained a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service on January 3, 2022, stating that the Plan and related trust were designed and in compliance with the applicable sections of the IRC. Effective September 20, 2024, the Plan is placing reliance on an opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service on the prototype plan indicating that the Plan is designed in accordance with the applicable section of the IRC. Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC and the Plan and related trust continue to be tax exempt. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded in the Plan’s financial statements.
U.S. GAAP requires plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the state and federal taxing authorities. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2024, there were no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in
-7-
| BUNGE SAVINGS PLAN | ||
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | ||
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024 AND 2023 | ||
the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.
7. EXEMPT PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS
Certain of the Trust’s investments are in shares of funds offered by Fidelity. Therefore, these transactions qualify as exempt party-in-interest transactions under ERISA. Fees paid by the Plan were $34,123 and $48,972 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Personnel and facilities of the Company have been used by the Plan for its accounting and other activities at no charge to the Plan.
The Plan allows for participants to invest in the Bunge Fund (subject to certain limits) which holds Bunge Global SA registered shares and short-term investments. Bunge Global SA is the parent company of the sponsoring Company. The Bunge Fund held 128,117 and 122,572 shares of Bunge at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, of which 6,157 and 6,805 shares were allocated to the Plan at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During 2024 and 2023, the Plan recorded dividend income of $17,457 and $18,306, respectively, and net depreciation in fair value of $141,419 and net appreciation in fair value of $2,463, respectively, from Bunge shares.
8. INTEREST IN BUNGE DEFINED CONTRIBUTION MASTER TRUST
The Plan’s investment assets are held in the Trust which was established for the investment of the combined assets of the Plan and other defined contribution plans sponsored by the Company. The assets of the Trust are held, managed, and administered by Fidelity pursuant to the terms of the Bunge Defined Contribution Master Trust. Investment income and administrative expenses relating to the Trust are allocated to the individual participants in the plans based upon individual participant activity. Each participating retirement plan has a divided interest in the Trust.
The Trust is required to maintain separate accounts reflecting the equitable share of each participating plan in the Trust. The Plan’s equitable share of the Trust cannot be used for the payments of expenses or benefits allocable to any other participating plan.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Plan's interest in the net assets of the Trust was approximately 5.4% and 5.5%, respectively.

9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements.
The various inputs that may be used to determine the value of the Plan’s and Trust’s investments are summarized in three broad levels. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. There have been no changes in methodologies or investment levels during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).
The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy a summary by category of equity securities held by the Trust measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2024 and 2023. The tables do not include the Collective trust funds value of $247,520,396 and $203,335,451

10. PLAN TRANSFERS
Certain Plan participants also had accounts in another defined contribution plan sponsored by the Company or a company within the same control group. In addition, if a change in a participant’s employment classification occurs during a plan year (for example, transfer from union to non-union classification), the assets related to such participant would be transferred to the applicable plan within the control group for such participant’s new employment status. Such transfer will be made within a reasonable period of time
-10-
| BUNGE SAVINGS PLAN | ||
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | ||

following the change in employment classification. Timing of those transfers may from time-to-time result in plan payables or receivables in the respective plans.

The following table summarizes investments held by the Trust for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.
